Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 56209 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase activity; glycerophosphoinositol glycerophosphodiesterase activity; and lysophospholipase activity. Involved in ethanolamine metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within N-acylethanolamine metabolic process and phospholipid metabolic process. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including ganglia; gut; lower urinary tract; lung; and nasal cavity epithelium. Orthologous to human GDE1 (glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele lack glycero-phospho-N-acyl ethanolamine (GP-NAE) phosphodiesterase activity in the brain. [provided by MGI curators] |
